Default Leveling kit help and tires

I just got a 2013 STX 2wd with 18" wheels and i was wanting some lift. i don't like how the stock is with small tires and lower in the front. I was thinking bigger tires and a leveling kit. i'm going to keep the stock wheels. I wanted to know the best leveling kit, what size, and good offroad tires. ive looked at toyo open country M/T and NITTO terra grapplers.

I just added the Rough Country 2.5" lift/level kit and some Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 35X12.5x20R and am quite pleased with the new look.

Default Front only?

Did you only put it on front or all four. The truck looks really sick by the way!

i also have a 2013 stx 2wd. i just put the bilstein 5100s on the front to level it. the ride is way better than stock. i have them set at 2". sits perfectly level. i dont have new tires yet but im looking at either a 275-70-18, 285-65-18, or a 295-65-18. all of those are roughly 33" tires. im kind of leaning towards the 295 goodyear duratracs. hope this helps.

We offer a 4" spindle lift that allows you to run up to a 35" tire. We designed to have stock like ride quality while keeping the geometry in place.
